For You DIANE

First I wanted to show you your shifty-eyed grandchildren (lydia/liam) looks like there up to no-good if ya ask me...

Next I wanted you to see the table you sent for Xmas, this is her kitchen in the background that she got too. But the table is GREAT and excellent quality...Ruby loves it!

Lastly here is the beautiful sweater on her...it's a perfect fit! You are great with sizes and I love the color...thanks thanks thanks, you know you are the best!!!

DAY OUT

Megan's Dexter didn't have school one day so the mom's (with no kids in school) went with her to the "Living Planet Aquarium" in Sandy ...it was a good day..

You can touch and pet the sting rays, the kids loved it. It was a fair price $8 for adults and kids under 3 are free. It was a good size of place too, (not too big where it takes 3+ hours to see everything)

There are steps too for little one's like Rube to view the "sea life"

Brooks in his sty'lin cap and Ingrid in her sty'lin cap

Needless to say, it didn't take much to wear them out and it was a nice relaxing ride home, it's great to have sisters close by

This is after we got home, Ruby woke up, only to walk directly to her room and fall helplessly on her bed into a deep slumber, again,that lasted a hour & a 1/2 (this was at 4:30 pm), I didn't have the heart to wake her though I knew it was going to be a rough bed time routine that night...

Holy Snow

For all you non-utahns' out there...we got slammed with a great storm that brought lots of white bliss...

Yummy snow...

Actually it is fun to get a big bowl of fresh/clean snow and add sweetened condensed milk and a little vanilla and stir it up for a great icey treat! Ingrid (my sis-in-law) taught us this and it is really fun to make after a storm like this...

Ruby trying desperately to run around or even walk, "Mom, the snow's too big." and later she said, "Mommy I can't walk, but (she means because) there's too many snows! "

She really would have sunk if she weighed a little more than a mere 23 lbs.

Lost in the oblivion of white...just a speck of pink

"Look Mom, a BED!!" then I said well I'll take a picture of it , and Ruby replied, "Mom, but the bed can't smile?!"

Oh, the glorious days of not having a garage! Enjoy it while I can eh?

And then, the sun finally broke thru and made the day even more beautiful!

Marty kindly removed this icicle, insisting that it could kill someone, had it fallen at the wrong time...I actually agreed with him!

SHOTS

So I have this really nice camera, "Canon, Rebel" that I've had for years and never use anymore because it's not digital ...I decided to use it only for black and white photos/close-ups and use it more often, plus I didn't know you could take your roll of film and put it onto a CD to edit and choose which to print and enlarge(news to me!)...these pictures are taken without my extended lense...next time I will use that...I don't know much about photography so if anyone would like to enlighten me on my camera or give me pointers that'd be great!

These were of my niece Willa, who is very photogenic, the next two, her brother Brooks (Jared's kids) were alot harder to capture...he does not sit still for a SECOND....... these were the best two I had...
